Hocking Hills Mini Getaway

This past week my husband and I spent two days in Hocking Hills, Ohio. What a glorious time! I totally underestimated Ohio. My mother had been there last year and kinda gave me the rundown, but what I saw for myself surpassed any words of promise. I could not wrap my head around the vastness of God's creation. I felt so small next to these gigantic caves and cliffs. It reminded me of these Robert Duncanson paintings I studied over the summer. We went with my husbands parents and two brothers, and stayed in this charming cabin that had the most fabulous bed I've ever slept on. Although, I could have been in love with it just because it was so different from the rock I sleep on now. My husband's poor hard laboring back requires firmness.(Save me sleep number bed! ) The hiking in the muggy woods was actually quite nice. I enjoyed burning all that energy only to end up in some sort of corner of heaven. My mom bought me these cute hiking boots for Christmas and I boldly wore them accepting all blistering consequences just to feel like a real hiker. I crack myself up. I would have loved to stay there longer. I would love to return in the fall. I guess it is just something to put on my to do list then :)

Those little white specs in the caves are people...that is how big this is!
